:: after law enforcement asked him to step out of the vehicle ::
I think I see your problem here, Mr. Eckert.
He made a “rolling-stop” coming out of private property. What reasons would an officer have to have Mr. Eckert leave his vehicle?
Note to self...decline the request and ask for probable cause.
“Clutching his buttocks” or just hitching up his drawers after getting out?
Perhaps even an old injury...if a cop wanted to cause trouble for me I’m sure they could pin everything from baloney like this to “drunk” on me when the reality is I have a janky hip that needs a minute to move properly after I’ve been sitting for a while.
I could see some jerkwad cop who just wanted an excuse to hassle someone finding a bit of stiff movement or a limp as PERFECT justification...
